1. Lists in posts. Headers. I mean, can you wrap your head around that? All kinds of great formatting tools for your text. Something I always wanted over at G+ and they never gave me (other than bolded and cursive text… meh).

2. More elegant presentation of embedded links in text, even when there is more than ONE link, and ESPECIALLY in comments.

3. Strictly chronological feed. That is sooooo refreshing. And…

4. No “weighted” posts. No “important” posts forced to the top of our feeds. That’s a big one. A HUGE one.

5. Non-profit, user-owned social network that will be around as long as there will be users of it. Not one person will be able to turn it off, one day. I mean, they could turn off Pluspora if they wanted, but then we could all merge into a different node/pod.

6. The follower count is not important anymore. In fact, there is no mention of that number anywhere on your profile. Forget it. Just follow people and enjoy their contributions. Or don’t, and then unfollow them.

7. Dark theme. Say no more.

8. No like button on comments. While I initially thought it was a minus, it quickly turned into a plus, at least for me. I love the added interaction - even if I just post something like “Yay you!” - but it’s more personal than just a “+” or a thumbs up.

9. No communities. Yes, it’s a positive. At least for me. Let’s all stay together and share content. You may not always like everything you see, but then just keep on scrolling.

10. Finally getting forced to learn how to properly use hashtags, dammit. The day has finally arrived that I have to bloody well go with the times. Starting now. Hmmm, let’s see… #gplusrefugee#ripgoogle#goodriddance. How’s that?
